# Mint-A-Cast: A Farcaster Frame

An ETHGlobalFramework Hackathon Project by Ricy [@ricy](https://warpcast.com/ricy) and Jamie [@chicago](https://warpcast.com/chicago).



## Introduction

We created the Mint-A-Cast frame to empower creators and users. We wanted to solve 2 problems: 

- How do we have on-chain attribution for users who save casts?

- How do we reward creators for quality, popular casts?



Our Mint-A-Cast frame solves these two problems. First, the frame allows users to mint banger casts and allows them to have an on-chain record of casts they like. Second, creators (cast authors) can set a fee when their casts are minted; this gives creators another avenue of revenue. Creators also have a way to track users who are rewarding them for their content; this gives another directory to content creators to possibly reward their followers. With the Mint-A-Cast frame, users directly reward creators for quality content thus increases the reward for casting quality content.



## MVP Summary

Through the use of this frame, the user can mint a cast as an NFT. Currently, the user will need to visit the site – https://frameworks-ri-ja-seven.vercel.app – to paste the URL to upload the metadata. Afterward, they use the link provided to cast that will spin up a frame. This single-frame will allow users to mint casts directly from the Warpcast platform. Currently, the cast creator can set a minting fee by interacting with the contract directly as well as withdraw funds. 



**User Flow**

1. Find a cast they like; copy the cast link (format: `https://warpcast.com/[castAuthorName]/[castShortHash]`)

2. Navigate to the website https://frameworks-ri-ja-seven.vercel.app

3. Past URL into input box, click button to next step

4. Follow Transaction pop-up in order to use the Pinata SDK to upload the IPFS

5. Copy the link to the frame generated.

6. Either cast this link to spin up the frame or use a debugger like frames.js to see the frame.

7. Click mint & sign the wallet pop up

8. Wait for the transaction to complete



Currently, the Mint-A-Cast website and frame is usable to mint any cast; so no customization is required beyond providing the cast link. You can use the link to the blockchain explorer to see recent mints: https://sepolia.etherscan.io/address/0x4dd9ed609abbb6ae489045a678ff3080d3f4106c



## Technical Summary

The [contract](https://sepolia.etherscan.io/tx/0x4b50fa82925f3417af973bddf057a074345efe818a6491e898f057f898141f23) is a erc1155 smart contract. The contract is deployed on Sepolia and developed with Hardhat. It also provides interface for authors to adjust price and withdraw profits.



The frontend is a NextJS project. Using [Framejs](https://github.com/jamiechicago312/frameworks-ri-ja/blob/main/frontend/src/app/%5BtokenId%5D/frames/route.tsx) to achieve single page minting frame. This Mint-A-Cast frame is to present users with the cast image of the nft they can mint with a the mint button. The mint button would allow users to send transactions to Sepolia chain and the transaction would also send some ETH as the fees to buy/mint the nft. After users have submitted the transaction, the frame returns a transaction submitted frame with transaction hash. To convert a cast into NFT, the project is using APIs by Wield to retrieve related data and using the Pinata SDK to upload metadata to IPFS.



## Future Roadmap



**General Improvements**

- Move production to Base Mainnet; currently dev is on Sepolia

- Switch from Wield API to Pinata Farcaster API when they accept the short hash and username for cast look up.

- Create multipage frame

   - First Page

      - Allow users to input cast link into first frame

      - Submit button & transaction to upload metadata IPFS

   - Second Page

      - Show picture preview of cast

      - Mint button & transaction to mint NFT

   - Third Page

      - Show success image

      - Link out button to blockchain explorer

- Deploy an 1155 contract per creator from first mint

- When the same cast is minted, it will have the same token id; hence, using ERC 1155.

- Each NFT will have attributes to show:

   - Date

   - Author Name

   - Channel cast was made in

- Make sure contract follows standards to be minting with Warps

- Small ~$0.10 fee for each mint to go to us (Ricy & Jamie) to help cover cost to maintain the Frame



**User Improvements**

- The frame's input with be able to accept the cast URL or a full cast hash input

- After the first mint, when the user shares their minted cast other users can mint the same cast with Warps through Warpcast.

- User will have a Mint-A-Cast web client to browse Farcaster

   - Minting cast is an embedded function

   - Users can use any currency (cross chain execute; full chain abstraction)

   - User can create their own custom Mint-A-Cast frame for specific casts of theirs



**Creator Improvements**

- Creation of a web client front end for creator tools including but not limited to

  - Set mint pricing (e.g. 0.001 ETH)

  - Set mint limit amount (e.g. 10 total)

  - Set mint time limit (e.g. 1 day)

  - Unmintable Cast (disabled minting on some casts)

  - Airdrop minted casts to previous supporters

  - Allowlist minting

  - Subscription to cast minting (through Hypersub)

  - Specify currency received (e.g. Base ETH, DEGEN)

      - Users will be able to use whatever

      - The currency will be instant bridged under the hood

  - Specify Chain for Depolyed Contract

     - Default to a chain if none selected

  - Allocate profits directly to an address withouth needing to withdraw
